Experienced, Focused and Caring Counselors. Skilled, Knowledgeable and Determined Advocates.
As a rising number of pharmaceutical drugs are rushed to market, and the competition among large drug companies also grows, the likelihood of a defective drug getting to market also increases. While the FDA strives to ensure drugs are safe, the FDA does not have the resources to monitor each drug. It is for this reason the law requires the drug company to report problems with its drugs to the FDA. When the pharmaceutical companies do not obey the law and people are harmed, we take great pride in holding them responsible and forcing them to comply with federal law. Dangerous drugs can cause numerous, serious injuries to men, women and children, including heart attacks, kidney damage, kidney and renal failure and death.
The law office of Tauber Westland & Bennett P.C. represents clients who have suffered serious harm as a result of a defective drug or as a result of ingesting a doctor-prescribed pharmaceutical when risks were not lawfully delineated to the prescribing doctor or to the end consumer.
